Wildflower Seed Starting Jugs
We are pleased to welcome back Rory Larson Director of Conservation, Steep Rock Association as we once again team up to reach out to community children. Learn about native plants and winter sowing. A simple method of planting seeds in a recycled jug and leaving them outdoors over the winter. Called simply “winter sowing,” it enables wildflower seeds to sprout at the same time as those in nature in a somewhat protected environment, while also providing the right environment for seeds that need cold moist winter conditions to germinate. Make a simple wildflower seed starting jug to raise your seedlings over the winter for spring planting.
This program is best suited for ages 5 years or older and is limited to 25 kids.
